Chevrolet Can Am 302

Post by Quintin »

:beach: En toe dink ekke. Ek kry baie lus om vir my een van die klyne fyne karretjies te soek en dan hom mooi reg te maak vir my plat kar wat ons almal seker ook maar graag wil he ek het besluit ek sal maar tevrede wees met die klyn motortjie. sy specks is ok 0-100 5.4 s top spoed so 225Km maar hy het nie power steering nie gelukkig weeg hulle maar net so n rapsie oor een ton en daar is so 295 perde wat jou sal help om oor die bult te kom.

Die groot vraag is waar kan ekke een kry, sal graag n projek van hom wil maak, Hulle se hy kan soveel as 7km per liter brandstof gee as daar nie n BM langs jou staan nie. :tongue:

Broers, broers, broers, julle beweeg nou op DIK tjekboek terrein.
Karretjie sou dalk nog bekostigbaar wees, maar om waardevol te wees moet die nommers reg wees, maw as jy restoreer moet jy 'n ou volledige een in die hande kry, soos hy van sy ma af kom, en dan regmaak. Nie ander parte insit nie, nee, die oues regmaak. Anders kan 'n ou maar gewoonweg vir jou 'n Firenza kry en 'n Chev 350 inbou. Maar op die manier sal jy taamlik meer spandeer as wat die eindproduk werd sou wees. My siening is om goed op te bou en te hou. As iemand simpel genoeg is om my prys te betaal, kan hy maar gaan. Intussen geniet ek die krag en die geraas. ( Soos mevrou en die bure dit noem ) m50sw

Ek deel jou droom. Daar was so 5/6 jaar terug `n tannie by `n ouetehuis hier in witbank wat haar manta verkoop het.Sy en haar man het hom van nuut af gery en hy was "spotless". 1.9 auto .Ek het gedink my droom gaan waar word, maar iemand anders het haar meer aangebied as wat ek kon.Nou sal daai soort speel maar so paar jaar moet wag. . . . . . . .

Gaan kyk hier op die forum - http://www.africanmusclecars.com/forum/ ... 72d4121c75" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

En kyk die link verseker - http://www.africanmusclecars.com/ChevFirenzaCanAm.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Daar is net 100 Can Ams gebou, so as jy een kry, is dit probably a fake.

Ja Kyk die klyn karretjies kom nie goetkoop nie maar as jy een kan kry wat oorspronklik is is dit n keeper. Ek wonder hoeveel van die 100 wat gebou is loop nog. Julle is ook reg n mens kyk nie hoeveel geld die goet kos nie maar hoegraag wil jy hom he.

Ek lees die manne het net 100 van die spogerige motortjies gebou en daar is nog net 300 op die pad so lyk my as jy oorspronklik wil bly het jy al klaar n kans on n nagemaakte een te koop so n mens sal jou huiswerk hier moet reg he en weet waarna om te kyk is daar iets op die onderstel wat anders is as die ferenza ek verstaan so 50% van die goeters wat jy kon sien was goet soos die stuurwiel, mags en so n paar kosmetiese goeters maar ek weet nie of daar ander meganiese veranderings was nie soos bv n sterker onderstel of n grooter tenk ens. Die ander opsie is maar om te gaan vir die Ferenza en dan net n lekker speelding

Iewers moet n register wees van die oorspronklikes, en dalk ook van die fakes.
As ek op iets afkom, sal ek jou laat weet.

Hulle bestaan, moet net soek. Die wat originals het, steek hulle diep weg.

Lees ander dag oor Ford mustangs, kan nie die jaar model onthou nie, maar daai ikoniese 1960's model, wat hulle 3 Mustangs in 4x4 gewaad gemaak het. n Ingineur wou aan die grootkoppe bewys watse vordele 4 wiel dry inhou vir hantering, toe maak hulle 3. Nou daai is gesogte voetuie

if there were only 100 built, and have no reason to doubt this number
would estimate there to be very few in its original state

remember hearing of a few being write off
then the ones that were racing on the circuit
the ones at the drags
personal know of one, purple that went to the cape, highly modified, broke bellow 10s 1/4 ET in 1993.
rode in one, white, with a supercharger, street car, also around the same time, got sold, remember something about it going into some sort of racing
and then there are also a few on the classic car circuit.

would be surprised if there were more then 20/100 of the original Can Am, not the copys

yes that would be a nice toy

good luck :beach:

Hi All as far as I could find out there is only about 15 of the origenal 100 stillrunningor available so getting one of them will not be an easy task, it will how ever be a bonus :) If someone can get hold of an register of the still available cars then one can cut out a lot of Bogus sales that is available as i see there are a few that they claim is the origenal one but if you look at the bonets, wing etc you can see they are not and then they have different motors, gearboxes, and the year mod is not 73/74. This is not going to be that easy, I am looking at the posibility of maybe building a replica of the origenal but then again I will need to get all the specks of the car also somthing not to easy to get. The clever old guys say with patients all will come together mmm I will see.

I saw two and am buzzy setting up some appointments to view them as soon as I am back. Now I am almost certain it is not one of the original ones but I will then build a replica as at the moment I think it will be the best that I can do.

agree, this is most probably the best bet

me think the guys that have original ones are going to ask ridiculous prices for them

Quintin,

As die wat jy gaan sien nie oorspronklik is nie, maar goeie replikas is, en die prys is goed, kry dit. Dan kan jy baie pret he en die ding gebruik. As hy oorspronklik is, gaan jy , soos ons reeds weet, baie betaal. Om met so 'n groot belegging ( want dit is wat dit sal wees ) rond te ry sal jou senuwees klaar maak. Het 'n Gordini gehad wat my senuwees klaar gemaak het, en hom gesmous en 'n ou SR 5 gekoop en warm gemaak. Hope pret , baie goedkoper en ek kan met hom tussen die taxi's ry sonder om bang te wees. Daai duur goed sit egter net in die garage.
